Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has reportedly become a near-constant presence alongside President-elect Donald Trump, playing an increasingly influential advisory role. According to reports, Musk has been actively participating in high-profile meetings and calls, offering insights on key issues and personnel appointments.

Musk’s Role in Post-Election Conversations

A recent report from The Information revealed that Musk joined a congratulatory call between Google CEO Sundar Pichai and Trump following the presidential election. During the call, Musk reportedly listened in as Pichai congratulated Trump on his victory. This marks one of several instances where Musk has been involved in significant conversations with global leaders and prominent tech executives.

Earlier, Trump disclosed a conversation with Apple CEO Tim Cook about concerns regarding financial penalties imposed on the iPhone maker by the European Union. Speaking on a podcast with Patrick Bet-David, Trump mentioned that Cook had reached out just hours before their interview to discuss the issue.

Advising on Key Decisions

Musk has reportedly been a regular visitor to Trump’s home in Florida, where he has been advising the president-elect on various matters. According to reports, Musk has been involved in telephone calls with world leaders and has provided input on personnel appointments both privately and publicly through X, the social media platform he acquired in 2022.

As Trump prepares for his second administration, Musk’s growing influence suggests a potentially significant partnership between the incoming administration and the tech entrepreneur.
